how? wasn't the whole thing about orange juice that the US just had too many danged oranges so they started advertising it is the breakfast drink? shouldn't it be dirt cheap?

I forget where I saw that online, but it was somewhere here in the USA. I can't say I've personally seen OJ at that price, but honestly I haven't ever shopped for OJ, so I dunno.

Still, somewhere between name brand and price gouging and shit, I don't doubt it a bit. Wherever I saw that posted, it was a photo including the shelf price tag.

$10.99 a fucking gallon!

Someone posted a Canadian store selling it for that much due to tariffs.

This was before the tariffs actually.
